Finnerty Express Café

Summer Hours

Proudly Serving Salt Spring Coffee

All our coffee beans are 100% certified organic from Salt Spring Coffee Co. micro roaster. Salt Spring Coffee Co.'s primary focus is certified organic fair trade, shade tree grown coffees that, by practice, yield a healthier product and provide positive returns to the farmers and their families. Trading in these coffees also supports the preservation of indigenous species, the conservation of wildlife habitat, and the continuous growth of the rainforest.

We have a large assortment of teas and refreshingly cool bottled beverages. Looking for a quick bite to eat? Delicious freshly baked muffins, scones, bagels, cookies, and other scrumptious goods are delivered each morning from local bakeries. In addition, we carry tasty fresh sandwiches, sushi, soup, a selection of vegan items and other savories.

Recycling and Composting

Finnerty Express is always looking for new ways to help our environment. All of our coffee grounds and filters are composted through an on-campus program and all soft plastic milk containers are returned to the supplier. Cardboard and paper products, soft and hard plastics, milk, cream, and soy cartons are carefully sorted and recycled to reduce the amount of waste going to our landfills. Glass juice bottles, plastic pop bottles, and cans left behind are collected and returned to the depot. Currently, it is estimated that 70-80% of our waste is composted or recycled, helping to make a greener, more sustainable campus.
